IHTM22061 - Quantifying increase to deceased's estate: what values to use

Use the values agreed for the earlier chargeable transfer ( IHTM04027) Therefore, if the value transferred by the first chargeable transfer is after deduction by business relief (IHTM25130) or agricultural relief ( IHTM24001) the increase is based on the value after reduction by the relief. Where the value of the property transferred was its appropriate fraction under IHTA84/S39A (3) then the increase is based on the value so reduced.

Ignore any costs and expenses payable on the earlier transfer. For example, if the earlier transfer was on death and your deceased took the residue, ignore the costs of administering the earlier estate when making your calculation.
